This was the first one that I had a really hard time with. Although I'm not a complete stranger to programming, I needed all three hints to solve it. The difficulty rating is very well-deserved.

Left and right are still a challenge for me...at 50. So, no surprise that I flipped X and Y.

By the way, M, nice work using the date for Viking 2’s launch date on this one.
